So I just finished my new song “Wake Up (they’re Calling Us)” or just “Wake Up” for short. I’ve been working on the song for a ling time. I started recording it about a year ago but recently I’ve added more vocals and effects to add a lot more depth the song. Also an independent film company wants to use the song for a woman’s rights movie! The song can be about any social or political issue because the lyrics are vague enough to not solo anything out. No matter what your beliefs are, you will be able to connect to this song. I originally wrote this in a more “in your face” tone but I felt that the lyrics didn’t mirror my true personality. At the time of writing this song I’ve just finished arguing with a friend of mine about politics. And although I tried to see his point of view, he’d never listened to mine. That’s when I lost it because I can’t stand it when people don’t respect my point of view. I don’t expect everyone to share the same beliefs that I do, that would be naive. But I do expect to be able to engage in a respectful debate instead of an anger driven argument. However I’m beginning to think even that is a naive expectation. Which is really sad because it’s becoming harder and harder to talk to people about politics without it becoming personal.

Anyway, the song “Wake Up” will be released shortly and, of course, I’m going to be making a music video for it. My dad and I have been discussing the idea of doing it on a rooftop with a band behind me. The band and I would be performing to people on the ground below. Another idea is that we hook up the projector to a car and we drive around town while projecting the image of me singing on the surfaces of the town. Which would look pretty cool. I’m really excited about this song and eager to find out what people think. So look for it on iTunes, YouTube or on this website soon. Share it with your friends and tell me what you think! I read every comment left on my work because I value all of your opinions.

It’s summer! Which means I have a lot more time to write more music, film more videos and keep you up to date on my music. Over the past year or so I’ve only released 3 songs (not much for a year). Well this summer I plan on getting more music out including videos and hopefully more gigs. So, like it or not, you’ll be seeing more of me. Yes, some of my songs are going to political, but I’m also have many other non-political songs in works to balance it out. After all I’m still a 15 year old, meaning I’m worried about my grades next year, whether I’ll get a girlfriend, excited to play airsoft and I’m anxiously waiting for the next season of Modern Family. But besides that stuff I also want to share my music with all of you. And nothing makes me happier than to see you enjoy listening to my music!

I’m adding some stuff to my song “Wake Up” (which might get a name change) like a new melody to fill the gaps in my chorus and some more background vocals. I’m also writing a song witch is currently titled “When I See You”, this title is not final because the song is still early in the writing process. I’m also going to start recording a 2 minute video everyday. This will be like a video diary. I’m pretty open so I’ll tell you about how I’m feeling, what I’m working on and what’s on my mind. If you haven’t already, browse the rest of my website, especially the media page. There you can listen to all of my music and watch al of my videos! Keep checking back because I write a new post every Monday and Thursday. And please follow me on twitter and tell your friends about my music!

Remember Germany is a song that compares the holocaust to modern day Israel. The holocaust was a terrible occurrence which “should never happen again”. What’s currently happening now in Israel seems to be leading toward another holocaust. In the middle-east multiple countries are releasing maps with no Israel; meaning they, literally, want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Based on current events, it’s believed that Iran is building a nuclear bomb! Iran has evaded any search team we send them. They’re also refining uranium to a percentage that isn’t necessary for nuclear power plants. This has really been troubling because if they succeed they will go right after Israel; which is one of America’s closest allies.

The first half of the song is dedicated to the holocaust. It’s about finding a diary of a relative that was a victim of the holocaust. As the diary is read, it reveals information about his life and the holocaust. The second half of the song deals with present time and modern day Israel. Now to fully understand what the song is referring to you have to do research on the holocaust and what’s happening in the middle-east. I highly recommend you watching the movie Obsession, which is a documentary on what’s happening in the middle east. Don’t trust everything I’m telling you, go out and research it yourself.
